They are the result of continental collision, with the mean rate of drift of continents around the globe being only 20 - 30 mm per year.
Not all volcanoes are mountains though most do form mountains. Some volcanoes form as simple fissures in the ground. There is a so-called supervolcano in Yellowstone that, does not take the form of a mountain. Kimberlite volcanoes also erupt too violently to form mountains.
Well convergent boundaries form mountains, but where do mountains form within the boundary? They start under the ocean and come up when the plates come together. So therfore they form under the ocean.
I don't have a physical form or location, so I don't have a community or mountains closest to me.
Mountains are quite big so they are rather hard to miss. People knew about mountains long before there were any scientists.
The speed at which mountains grow depends on the type of mountains. Mountains formed by seismic activity may form almost instantly if there is a violent upheaval in the earth. Volcanic mountains tend to form over a period of years as lava accumulates.
A transform fault does not typically form mountains. Transform faults are characterized by horizontal motion and sliding past each other, so they do not promote vertical displacement that creates mountains like convergent or divergent boundaries do.
It takes 3 to 3 and a half hours by car from MoBay to Kingston. From Kingston to Blue Mountains is a trickier question. It depends on how high into the mountains one is going. About 5,000 feet up to a place like starlight chalet will take another hour. So in all, figure about 4 to 5 hours journey from MoBay to Blue Mountains
Its about 74 miles so it takes almost 2 hours
its 126723638791273632 feet long and this answer is wrong so lol and broke a leg but YOLO
WHY DO WORK PERMITS TAKE SO LONG
It depends on where your at, in the rainforest it can happen in a year, while in other places take hunreds of years.
Yes, some mountains were once underwater, so it's possible to find sea shells on mountains. These sea shells are typically found in areas where tectonic activities have pushed the sea floor up to form mountains.
